Cannot start latest rev gambas3 as remote command with nx client

[Ron Klinkien]

Hi,

I upgraded my gambas3 install to the latest rev today 1376

Since then I cannot open it with nx client as remote x app anymore, when
I try that I get:



Using NX client on windows 3.0.0-89.
with UNIX, Custom, run the following command 'gambas3'

Starting Gambas 2.6 on the same machine still works ok this way, and the
older version of 3 worked fine too, I also can start it in an NX X
remote desktop session fine, but not as an remote command.

Any pointers? Something changed in the way it request screen sizes when
started?

Regards,
Ron

In Gambas 3, the IDE uses the gb.desktop component that read the X11 root
window properties to get the desktop size.

This error means that the X11 root window property that describes the
dimensions of desktops (you can have more than one if you have virtual
desktops) is not defined.

This property is set by the X11 window manager.

Can you try to run a terminal instead of Gambas, and send me the output
of "xprop -root"? This way I will know which properties are defined.

Ok that explains it, I see no properties which define screen/window
size. see xprop.jpg.
session.jpg shows what is running underneat, it reflects the available
screen size on the local computer.

Regards,
Ron.
